Garden Grove is located in Orange County right next to Anaheim and the Walt Disney parks. If you’re considering a job in Garden Grove, there are some things you should know about building in this area.
You’ll need a building permit in Garden Grove for the following activities:
You can find the building permit application under the Building Services Division section of the Garden Grove website. You’ll need two copies when you submit it. The permit is valid for 180 days from the time the city approves it.
You can request an inspection online through the city’s website. You just need the permit number to schedule it through the online portal. You’ll want to ensure you have the copy of the plans as approved by the city and inspection card when the inspector arrives onsite. You’ll need an inspection periodically as state and local codes require them. Typical stages include:
California requires all contractors, which includes 44 different license classifications, to be licensed through the Contractors State License Board. You can visit the board’s website for more information on how to apply. It takes four years of experience in that field and passing an exam.
The state requires all contractors to have workers’ compensation insurance. There are some exceptions: one is if you don’t have any employees and another is if the employees working for you are not California residents. It’s a benefit to everyone protecting you and your employees. You’ll need to provide proof of this to the state licensing board to get a license.
You should note, though, that California does not require contractors to have contractor liability coverage. You should still consider it because it offers peace of mind in case something unexpected happens. Talk to your insurance agent if you need more information about why this type of coverage is beneficial.
Once you have your insurance, licenses, and permits in order, the next step is to start the construction. As you prepare, you might want to consider whether you need additional equipment than what you already own. You might need extra equipment or specialized equipment that you don’t own, such as boom lifts, manlifts, scissor lifts, and forklifts. If so, consider renting this equipment. You can have them delivered right to your site on the day you first need them, which saves you money and provides convenience.
Garden Grove is a lovely location for a construction job. Good luck in your endeavors!
